Memory Expansion

Expanded memory provides additional nonvolatile (battery backed) bulk
storage to hold more formats, fonts, or bitmap graphics.

Twinax Interface

This option lets you connect your printer to an IBM Twinax cable system with
a Twinax interface so your 4400 printer emulates an IBM 5256 Model 1 printer
and can operate with an IBM System/34, System/36, System/38 or AS/400
host computer.

Coax Interface

The Coax Interface Adapter lets the 4400 printer emulate an IBM 3287 printer
by connecting the printer to IBM 3270 Type A Coax cable computer systems
operating in the VTAM (CICS/IMS/TSO) or 8100 (DPPX) environments. With
the Coax adapter you can connect the printer to an IBM 3174 or IBM
3274/76/99 system controller/multiplexer.

Centronics Parallel Interface

This option lets you connect your printer to a PC through a Centronics parallel
interface.
Intermec does not provide a cable for use with the parallel interface. The
following information will allow you to make your own interface cable.
The following pin descriptions are for the printer's parallel interface connector:
